Update 16.5 Tubemen of Regor
New Event: OPERATION TUBEMEN OF REGOR (Event will begin within an hour of Update deployment)
Tenno,
You have the opportunity to strike at the heart of Tyl Regor’s secret cloning labs but this opportunity comes with a difficult choice.
Alad V thinks these labs contain a cure for the Infestation that riddles his body and he wants us to find it. Nef Anyo hates Alad and will do anything to keep him from becoming strong again, including destroying the cure he seeks. Both are offering to lead us to the labs.
You must decide which is the lesser of two evils.
- The Lotus
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO DO
Visit the Grineer Ocean on Uranus.
You must decide if you wish to help Alad V or Nef Anyo. Helping Alad V means stealing the cure for his Infestation, while helping Nef Anyo means destroying the cure.
Locate the Pump Room. You will need to flood this facility. Break open the pipes to allow pumped water to flood the room then start the pumping process at the nearby console.
Once you have activated the console, wait for the pumping process to complete. Be alert, Tenno! Enemies may attack. Keep them from interrupting the process.
When the pumping process is finished, use the elevator to access the caves below. Enemies may be waiting, so use caution.
Your next steps will be determined by the side you have chosen:
Destroy (help Nef Anyo)
Locate the Genetic Experiment. Attack and defeat it.
Proceed to Extraction.
Steal (help Alad V)
Locate two Console areas in the DNA Room. Find nearby Toxin cells and apply them to each Console to extract important information and sabotage the cloning process.
Proceed to Extraction.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
You may choose to assist either Nef Anyo by Destroying Grineer Research Components or Alad V by Stealing Grineer Research Components.
This Operation is on now until Wednesday, May 20 at 12 p.m. EDT.

Hidden under the toxic oceans of Uranus is Tyl Regor’s genetic labs. Built into the massive coral pillars rising up from the depths these twisting halls represent the latest in Grineer scientific achievement.

New Nightmare Trial Difficulty
New Trial leaderboards URL (link coming soon):
Nightmare Trials are challenging encounters designed for experience groups of Tenno looking for a new challenge. Harder hitting enemies, new traps and tweaks to each of the existing encounters in the Trials of Vay Hek will push your squad’s coordination to the limit.
We want all Tenno to enjoy our first attempt at a Nightmare mode of this size and intensity. Please keep in mind that adjustments may be needed if the content proves to be too difficult. Good luck!
Players can purchase the Nightmare Trial of Vay Hek Key from the Marketplace for 100,000 Credits. Building a key costs 5000 Credits, 1000 Rubedo, 18000 Nanospores, and 2 Gallium.
